Notes |
- He succeeded to Blythswood as the next heir of entail, and resigned Mains to his brother Colin, the entail prohibiting the estates of Blythswood and Mains being held by the same person. He took the name of Campbell, and married Henrietta, daughter of the third James Dunlop of Garnkirk. He died in 1773, and was succeeded in Blythswood in turn by his two sons, John, who was accidentally killed at Martinique, and Archibald, the well-known M.P. for the Glasgow District of Burghs, who died unmarried in 1838. A third son, James, died a lieutenant in the 55th Regiment at Antigua in 1781 unmarried.
